In the symbolic reading of Egyptian myth, Horus and Set can be seen as reflections of the Sun and Moon in constant tension --Horus representing order, light, and the rising sun, while Set embodies disruption, darkness, and the opposing force that challenges that light. Texts like the Egyptian Book of the Dead encode this cosmic struggle as a cycle of death, rebirth, and balance, where light must continually overcome darkness. In this lens, the Bible can be interpreted as carrying forward a similar symbolic framework --using narrative and theology to express the same underlying solar-lunar rhythm of life, polarity, and renewal, where light and darkness are not just moral forces, but cosmic forces moving in a repeating, structured pattern.
